As I am interested as well:
When you say basic support is already there, what are you thinking of? As I look at it, it would require more than just a stylesheet, especially as many handhelds default to having style sheets turned off (e.g. my blackberry 8830 ). The way I see it, we would want to do something like detect the browser on page load and swap themes from normal "monobook" (or whichever) to a theme and style sheet designed for handhelds.
Given that, I agree, it should not be too complicated, but one question I would have is the appropriate place to put the check for browser type. Is there a hook that would be appropriate?

I posted to this list to effectively suggest a feature - native support for WAP/mobile versions built into the MediaWiki software.
Basic support is already there - all that's needed is a style sheet.
This couldn't be that hard to do.
Someone would still have to do it - remember that this is an open-source project developed in great part by volunteers.
